Greetings !!

Over the past week I hosted a coloring event  on Facebook to celebrate the release of my 100 block Meraki A part of my heart and soul Variety Coloring Book. This book has 100 of my favorite coloring pages from all my books along with 32 brand new pages in various styles ranging from simple too complicated, grayscale illustrations and line art . I am so flattered that so many of you took the time out of your day to join me throughout the week for live color alongs,book giveaways and a coloring contest. So many of you offered to color a page from this book and help promote this book on social media and I couldn’t be more over the moon.

Three years ago this week I released my very first coloring book. I remember sitting in my art studio drawing each day,interacting with colorists on social media and hoping that just one person would buy one of my coloring books. I never ever imagined that I would have self published 100 bucks including kids books ,cookbooks and journals. I could’ve never done any of this without any of you and your support for all of my art. The most exciting thing for me is to see page that’s been colored by one of you and when I hear how much joy coloring a drawing from one of my coloring books has brought to someone, it fuels me to keep drawing.

The past week may be over but the celebration for my 100 book me Meraki A part of my heart and soul Variety Coloring Book will continue over the next several months. Coloring co-op Facebook coloring group will be featuring this book the week of April 29. Stay tuned for more information about this event in coloring co-op.
